This is all in PowerPivot 2010.

I have an invoice table with: Invoice number, Part Number, Quantity, and Price.

I also have two tables with: Part Number, Part Name. There two tables are because they are two different categories of products.

I want to have a single column that will combine all of the part names that belong to an invoice number.

Example would be:

Invoice table:
[TABLE="width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Invoice #[/TD]
[TD]Part Number[/TD]
[TD]Quantity[/TD]
[TD]Price[/TD]
[TD]Related 10000 Name[/TD]
[TD]Related 30000 Name[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]1[/TD]
[TD]10125[/TD]
[TD]2[/TD]
[TD]100.00[/TD]
[TD]Apples[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]1[/TD]
[TD]30524[/TD]
[TD]1[/TD]
[TD]50.00[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD]Lettuce[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

I want to have a column that would say: "Apples Lettuce"
Even better, would be the column would say "Apples Apples Lettuce"

Is this possible in a calculated column or a measure?

If I combined the tables with product names so there is only one related column, would it make it easier to get to "Apples Apples Oranges"?
 

Excel Facts

Add Bullets to Range
Select range. Press Ctrl+1. On Number tab, choose Custom. Type Alt+7 then space then @ sign (using 7 on numeric keypad)
Oh, there will also be some products that do not have names in the related tables, as they will be excluded from the project I will be working on
